Gregg and i only get together about 3 or 4 time a year. we war sitting here in my NY apt. telling Sand Tremblay stories to my husband. We goggled her and found out she passed. She was the most unique, interesting person we had both ever met and have hilarious Sandy stories.
Sandy you are remembered and you made a mark here on earth.

I am saddened to find that my high school friend, Sandra, has passed. She was multi-talented, off-beat, fun, gifted and a beautiful soul. I last saw her at San Diego State, where I took a theatre class with her. I knew her family and was a regular visitor to their home. I have fond memories of Sam calling the cats and dogs and impersonating the toilet! I had pictures of us together but all of my families earlier photos were

Jim, Our deepest sympathies on your loss. Sandy's Hungarian pickled pigs feet were the best! It makes my mouth burn just to think about them! We miss her.

I will always fondly remember Sandy and Jim. They both recruited me to play Rounders at the Faire back when my knees would still bend. When I was a young punk finding my way in the world, they put me in my place when my cynicism grew too great. Sandy's acerbic wit was refreshing in the PC world of Berkeley in the 1980's. Her voice will live forever in my mind. Hang in there old friend. I wish i lived

I remember Sandy,
She was magnificent.
I was crew/beverage and she was part of Entertainment, but she was funny. I always love funny people and people who laugh at my jokes.

All who knew her share the loss of Sandy... She was a bright spirit of infinite jest, warm hearted, generous to a fault, and want to smooth the path for others and adopt the world's strays, geeks, and freaks into her loving heart. May flights of angels (and your bites of strangers) bear thee to thy slumbers, Alaisande.

Sandy will shine on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. She will be missed greatly and yet talk to her as if she is in the other room next to you. You may be surprized at the thoughts/replies you may get if you keep your hearts and minds open. Love Surround You Sandy. Wooje Wooje

Sandy was one of the most creative people I knew, the costumes she designed for me over the years were always beyond belief, our shared addiction of scrounging for reusable items was way too much fun
but the things she could make with these items! Sandy's generosity always amazed me. I truly treasured our friendship. I will never be able to look at a toilet dumped on the side of the road without thinking of you.

My fondest memory of Sandy is at Jimmy and her wedding. Unique doesn't say enough about her. My condolences to Jimmy and may she rest in peace

Jim, I'm so sorry. Seeing you and Sandy at Rakkasah, and Mary Ellen's events, was always a joyously appreciated highlight that had me eager to attend. I was so looking forward to seeing both of you in Richmond this year.
I would often stop and admire the beautiful clothes you both wore from across the room, impressed and gratified that somebody had found a way to tastefully and attractively stand out in a crowd.
I always looked forward to spending time
